Our pretty hydrangea sitting right outside the front door...clearly very content with these constantly damp, rainy days...never before has it been such a vibrant shade of pink.~♥~My vintagey, boho quilt is complete...at last, it's time for the wash and drier treatment...then I'll post a few pics..Sitting and stitching down the binding was a lovely excuse to watch'A Streetcar Named Desire' and''Cat on a Hot Tin Roof'all in one afternoon...along with a few treats along the way...most important...Oh, I do love Tennessee Williams!~♥~

Your pictures are sooo lovely! Love everything... fabric, salt and pepper shakers and the wonderful gifts!, Also your hydrangea is just gorgeous, I am hoping to add a pink one to my garden... so far I have blue and purple!

Good Monday to you, dear Susan! Such exquisite pictures grace your blog as always. Your hydrangeas are lovely. I have noticed around our parts here in France this year has been quite remarkable for flamboyant bright pink hydrangeas.

I hope you will show us your finished quilt soon. It is wonderful to cast your eyes over such a big finished creation and think back on all the films you have enjoyed whilst stitching away.

What a stunning colour your hydrangea is, mine has done so well this year too, it definitely must be the rain!! Love the salt and pepper and what a lovely giveaway gift.Congrats on your well deserved award. :)Happy Monday Susan,Vivienne x

The scrabble picture is gorgeous....as are your new breakfast friends.Our hydrangeas have flowered early this year....and are more vibrant than usual....it's a good thing all this rain has some uses!!!

Such a delicious post, Susan! I love all your pretty and colourful pictures. I look forward to seeing your makes with the new Bonnie and Camille jellyroll, such gorgeous fabrics. Your hydrangea looks amazing...some plants just seem to love the rain. Congratulations on the lovely giveaway gifts and well deserved blog award too.Hope you have a happy sunny week.Helen x

That roll of fabric just looks so pretty, it must be difficult to unfurl, I'm guessing that they are smaller pieces than a fat quarter? My shelves have become so full of yarn and fabric (none so pretty as that though!) that they throw themselves at you as you walk past....I need bigger shelves,

The buttons are gorgeous, looking forward to seeing how you use them, and also looking forward to seeing the boho quilt. I like Stephanie's thoughts on remembering the time spent when you look at a finished object, especially one you've enjoyed so much....I think there's a lot in that, I like to think that when I see something I've crocheted.

My hydrangeas are positively overflowing, I must photograph them and put them on my blog, as you soon forget the colours in the autumn.

What a lovely way to start the week....Pretty pinks of all kinds and precocious little puppies sitting so pretty!I hope you have a wonderful week filled with sunny skies and soft fabric stitches!Blessings,Carolynn xoOh...What a delight to see your giveaway!

How lucky you have been with your wins Susan. There are so many bright colours in you post and the sun has returned just in time. Have a delightful week, looking forward to seeing the finished quilt.Jane x

You have so many pretty pictures to show us. I love the doggy salt and pepper shakers and am a big fan of Camille's fabrics and her blog. Hopefully you have cut a few of those hydrangeas to enjoy indoors on your table. All the best!

Everything is so pretty....I love your salt and pepper dogs. Your Hydrangeas are just like mine..same colour and they grace my front door too...now I will think of you everytime I see them...hugs to you. oxo

I wish my hydrangeas were pink, but they are purple. I know you can change the colors by putting minerals or something near the roots.. maybe I should find out! Love the salt and pepper.. where did you find those? Pretty photos, my friend! ((hugs)), Teresa :-)
